Here is a video that clearly shows that approximately 150-200 people were in attendance, NOT over 1000 as some maintain.
As usual, there is a dispute over the number of people that attended this event. Organizers claim that a thousand or more people were in attendance. I posted a video where I actually walked through the crowd counting the people. I came to about 150. In line with this, is the events page on the group’s Facebook wall, which shows that only a 128 people attended.
